Mixed martial arts career

The Ultimate Fighter

During The Ultimate Fighter 3 Hutcherson trained under Ken Shamrock's team. He kicked off a good relationship with Kendall Grove, forming "Team Dagger", although they were in different teams.

After losing the fight with Rory Singer he stated “You always end up learning from a loss. I had never gone into any of my prior fights taking things so personally. I was in the position of living out a dream. I have been watching the UFC ever since I was a kid. I finally had the chance to get inside the Octagon. That really got to me on an emotional level.”

Other Competitions At the "Xtreme MMA 5" event, Hutcherson met David Loiseau. During the final round, Solomon was knocked out by repeated knee strikes to the head, in a Muay Thai clinch.

Maximum Fighting Championship Hutcherson fought Jason MacDonald at Maximum Fighting Championship event in December 2009, losing by split decision.
